Israel Coach: "We'll Need an M-16 to Stop Antetokounmpo"

Ahead of tonight's Eurobasket Round of 16 match against Greece, Israel's coach, Ariel Beit Halami, stated that his team needs to play smart and tough defense.

"A great game from the national team, we haven't been in the round of 16 for a long time. We are facing a very good team and we are coming to give it our all with a lot of faith. We have to play very good, smart and - most importantly - tough defense," said Ariel Beit Halami.

"I imagine we'll have to bring an... M-16. That would be the easiest way," the 59-year-old coach jokingly said, referring to Giannis Antetokounmpo.
